Chetwynd’s chainsaw carving championship returns Dave Lueneberg Reporter/Photographer Considered the community’s signature event, the annual Chetwynd International Chainsaw Carving Championship returned Thursday. 12 sculptors from, literally, around the world are being given 35 hours over four days to design and carve out their masterpieces, both large and small. Not held since 2019, organizers are thrilled it’s back. “We definitely missed it in the time it was gone,” said president Chris Larsen. With gathering restrictions still in place earlier in the year, the event’s committee weren’t too sure if this year would even happen. “We definitely had to wait a little longer to pull the trigger on saying yes, we’re doing it. We had to make sure everyone was going to be as safe as they could. But, mainly that our travellers could travel,” said Larsen.
